I Am Overlord

equivalent of the growth of the ghostrunes.
Thus, there was a need for him to take it seriously.

By the time Xiang Shaoyun ended his cultivation session, the Dong Clan people were returning in triumph.
Dong Qinggu, Dong Zhongyuan, Dong Zhuoyue, and the other Dong Clan Emperors convened a meeting between the higher ups.
Xiang Shaoyun, Devouring Ghost, and Du Xuanhao were also invited to the meeting.

In the meeting hall, Xiang Shaoyun was welcomed with the highest honors they could accord him.
This welcoming ceremony was completely different from their previous welcoming ceremony.
This time, the people from the Dong Clan were no longer gloomy.
Rather, they were smiling with joy.

Dong Qinggu was the first to speak, ”On behalf of the Dong Clan, I would like to thank Young Master Xiang and the two friends for your assistance.
Our Dong Clan would not have survived this crisis otherwise. ”

He then bowed before Xiang Shaoyun.
The other Dong Clan members also bowed without delay.
The people gathered in this room were basically all Emperors, people of the most esteemed stature in the Five Denseforest Cities.
Here they were, all bowing to a third-stage King like Xiang Shaoyun.
If someone else saw this scene, they would mistake it for a declaration of allegiance.
It was definitely shocking.

Xiang Shaoyun was overwhelmed, and he quickly said, ”There is no need for this, everyone.
How can I accept such honor? ”

Dong Qinggu stood straight up and took out a storage ring before saying, ”Young Master Xiang, this is a little gift from the Dong Clan to show our gratitude.
Please accept it. ”

Xiang Shaoyun hesitated slightly before accepting the ring.
He said, ”This kid shall accept it, then. ”

”Haha, you deserve it, Young Master Xiang.
I hereby declare that Young Master Xiang will forever be the honored guest of the Dong Clan.
In the future, any Dong Clan member seeing you will have to accord you the greatest of honors, ” said Dong Qinggu.

The other Dong Clan people voiced their agreement, making it clear they would comply.
After Xiang Shaoyun sat down, Devouring Ghost and Du Xuanhao remained standing behind him.
The Dong Clan people noticed that detail and their opinion of Xiang Shaoyun grew even more.

At this time, Dong Zhongyuan signaled Dong Zhuoyue with his eyes.
Dong Zhuoyue understood what he was getting at and immediately smiled at Xiang Shaoyun.
”Young Master Xiang, we know that you have only helped us because of Little Wan.
Now that our clan has survived this crisis safely, if you are willing, I ’ll be making the decision to betroth Little Wan to you.
What do you think? ”

The moment he said that, all the Dong Clan people focused on Xiang Shaoyun, their eyes filled with hope and expectation as they waited for his answer.

Xiang Shaoyun blanked out slightly before frowning.
”Dong Clan leader, I think you have misunderstood something.
We are only friends.
I helped her out of my free will and have never expected anything in return.
I appreciate the offer, but I don ’t think it will be necessary. ”

”Little Wan does like you a lot.
I am certain of that.
Is our Little Wan not good enough for you, Young Master Xiang? ” Dong Zhuoyue asked.

Dong Zhuoyue was afraid that Xiang Shaoyun would think he was forcing the marriage, so he had to explain himself.

With a firm tone, Xiang Shaoyun answered, ”It ’s not that she is not good enough for me, but I have always seen her as a good friend and have never thought about anything else.
In any case, I have a mission to accomplish.
If you betroth Little Wan to me, it might bring destruction to your clan in the future.
Therefore, do not mention this again.
Since the Dong Clan ’s crisis is over, I will also be taking my leave.
Goodbye. ”

The Dong Clan people were instantly stunned.
